Overview
The 2022 Domaine Mongeard-Mugneret Chambolle-Musigny is a village-level Pinot Noir from Burgundy’s Côte de Nuits. The appeal of this cuvée lies in fragrance, fine texture and a measured expression of fruit, rather than the weight of a more powerful Burgundy style.
Based in Vosne-Romanée, Mongeard-Mugneret is a longstanding family domaine whose range explores the distinctions between Burgundy’s villages and vineyards. Its Chambolle-Musigny offers a particularly delicate thread within that collection, with limestone-grown Pinot Noir at its centre.
Vintage & Winemaking
The domaine’s published vineyard information for this cuvée identifies a small holding of approximately 0.31 hectares on hard Jurassic limestone with coarse stony material, at around 255 metres above sea level. These are characteristics of the vineyard, rather than measurements specific to the 2022 harvest.
Hand harvesting and careful sorting form part of the producer’s approach. Destemming decisions vary with the vintage, preserving flexibility in how each season is handled. The domaine’s description of the resulting style emphasises floral perfume, delicate berry fruit and a fine tannin texture.
